Weather Conditions.
A gradual eastward movement of
the "high" during the past twenty
four hours, together with an apparently
rapid southeasterly movement of yes
terday 's low'' to the region extending
from South Dakota to New Mexico, has
caused rising temperatures in the Ohio
valley, upper and lower Lake region,
Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Minnesota
and the territory between the Missis
sippi river and the Eoc ky mountains.
The temperatur.es are falling slowly
along the south'Atlantic and east gulf
coasts, and rapidly in northern New Eng
land. This morning's temperatures are
slightly below zero in Manitoba, north
ern North Dakota, southern Wisconsin
and northern Michigan, and 16 degrees
in northern New England. There has been
very little precipitation during the past
twenty-foui hours, and none is expected
in this vicinity tonight or Saturday.
The relative positions of the "high*"
and "low" will cause rising tempera
ture tonight. T. S. Outram,
Section Director.

Much Sensational Evidence I Promised
in Probate Court When Hoaxing I
Had on Application for Letters of
Administration for Estate of Ella
Sutherland. Noti ce of a sensational contest over
the will of the late Ella Southerland
was filed in the probate court today by
the attorneys for Leeds Greene of She
boygan, Wis., a son of the deceased,
who was cut of? with $1 in the will. J.
R. Lewis, superintendent of the Rice
detective agency, was the sole devisee
of the estate, valued at $6,400, and his
application for letters of administra
tion for himself will be heard before
Judge G. Harvey next Monday.
The contestant alleges that the in
strument filed in the probate court is
not the last will and testament of the
deceased that if it is, it was obtained
by fraud and undue influence, and that
it was illegally executed.
Story of Decedent.
The contest will develop that the
decedent was a woman 36 years of age,
and'that she was formerly the wife or a
Mr. Greene, father of her only son,
Leeds Greene. She came to Minneap
olis some years ago and was known as
Mrs. Sutherland. How she came by
that name is not generally known, as
Mr. Sutherland does not figure in her
story here. She was in straitened cir
cumstances and, it is said, worked for
a local detective agency as a spotter''

Her acquaintance with J. E Lewis
ia said to be of long standing, but what
caused her to will him all her property
is a question that her relatives are try

when a divorce was granted to her hus

of her one son, then a small boy. Later

Question of Will.
It is said that the woman who lived
with the deceased will testify that Mrs.
Sutherland said, about two months
prior to her death, that she felt she
should make a will or some disposition
of her property. The will filed by Lew
is after Mrs. Sutherland's demise is
dated in the fall of 1904.
The case has attracted considerable
attention in Sheboygan and eminent
counsel in that town and St. J^aul
have been retained to make a fight for
the disinherited boy in his attempt to
break the will. I is believed that there
is a considerably larger estate than is
given in the application for letters of
administration.
CODE WAITS ON EDITOB
PRINTERS HAVE ALL I N TYPE,
BUT PROOFREADING DELAYS
THE PUBLICATION.
Another conference on the revised
codo was held today, and it develops
that bound volumes of the code cannot
be issued before Feb. 28. Every effort
is being made and the code is a regular
nightmare to the state officials who
have it in hand.
Mark Dunnell of Owatonna, the
editor, was present with representatives
of the printers. E Hanson, secre
tary of state, A N Dare, state printer,
and George T. Simpson, representing
Attorney General Young, constituted
the board.
The printers report that the co'de is
all in type, but only about 1.000 pages
have been corrected, and they cannot
begrin binding until the editor has fin
ished reading proof. promised to
have 170 pages more Monday, the
19th, and to have all proof corrected
by the 23d. This will give only five
days for binding, and it will not be pos
sible to get out 1,000 copies by the
26th, as promised. A small edition
will be ready, however, by March 1,

First Assistant County Attorney John
F. Dahl today in his cross-examination
of Emma Anderson, one of the women
accused of setting fire to the store.
Miss Anderson, was on the stand for
the defense and in every way attempt
ed to shield herself and her partner,
Mrs. Yates, who"is now on trial. She.
denied having any knowledge of the
setting of the fire and asserted repeat
edly thta she was satisfied with the way
the store was running and was getting
good interest on her investment. On
cross-examination by Mr. Dahl she told
of the details of the business.
She admitted taht no books were kept
and that they had no delivery wagon.
In-the morning each patrner put an
equal amount of money in the cash
drawer and at night they divided the
receipts. The goods were purchased
with money of which each woman paid
half.*
Counsel made the witness admit that
she had no more money in the bank at
the end of her first month of storekeep

she had little more stock, ,and that she
had spent $90 out of $100 in eash, which

make a strenuous effort to collect the
money he claims to be due the county.
It is admitted that the ccrnorer has
the right to engage doctors to hold a
postmortem examinations in cases
where death resulted from violence or
where the circumstances lead to sus
picion of violence. Outside of these
cases it is claimed that numerous post
mortems have been held, not because Sweet Corn, can 5 dozen 55c
the county wanted them held, but be
cause individuals or corporations
wanted them and in which the result
has been simply an assistance in deter
mining civil liability. I these cases
the jeounty attorney holds that the
money was illegally expended and must
be refunded.
Coroner Kistler has indicated that he
was willing to do whatever is right in
the matter and may pay the bill against
him rather than have suit brought. Dr.
Willii-ms, however, has stated that the
case would have to be fought thru the
supreme court before he would pay* up
and this the county attorney stands
ready to do.
The preparation of pleadings in these
cases entails a great amount of work
as each ease has to be investigated in
order to determine whether or not the
examination was warranted by the
facts. Owing to this it will be some
time before the papers are prepared
and filed.
ORATORIO PLEASES
St. Paul Choral Club Renders
Dreams."
'House of
The St. Paul Choral club gave de
lightful rendition of the "House of
Dreams" last evening in the People's
church. St. Paul. The, soloists were Sig-1
nor Campanari and Mrs. Katherine Gor
don French. Campanari was in splendid
voice and gave his numbers with a Are
and spirit that won him many recalls.
Mrs. French delighted the audience
with her interpretation of the bright, vi
vacious sections and in the deeper num
ber, "The Blessed Damozel," sung with
the ladies' chorus. The oratorio num
bers were'more than satisfactory and the
club, under the direction of George
Fairclough, sang the weird, dreamy mu
sic smoothly and sympathetically. The
oratorio, "The House of Dreams," was
only recently composed, and has been
given but one other presentation.
